In the hydrocarbons sector, AVL’s specialized lawyers are crucial at various stages and situations due to the complexity and strict regulation inherent to the industry. This involvement is essential both in upstream activities, such as exploration and production, where obtaining licenses and permits and negotiating exploration and exploitation contracts with the government and other entities are key, and in downstream activities, including refining, transportation, and marketing. Lawyers ensure compliance with environmental and safety regulations and manage supply and distribution contracts. AVL’s expert attorneys are also vital in drafting and negotiating transportation and storage agreements, ensuring adherence to both international and local standards.
In mergers and acquisitions, AVL conducts due diligence, structures transactions, and manages regulatory aspects to ensure smooth operations.
Finally, in project financing, we facilitate access to capital by negotiating loan terms and ensuring all parties meet their contractual obligations.
